I will not stay there ever again.
Pros:

It was located where we needed. The lady at the registration desk at the Baymont was fun.

Cons:

The breakfast was next to nothing. There was no toilet paper or any other helps in the room. We forgot the check out, so we called the number on the receipt and it was out of service. Floor was tacky.

WAS ok hotel was a dump
Pros:

TV in the room did not work. The pool was closed, filled with water so old it had plants growing in it. It was obvious the pool had not been used in years. rooms and halls smelled like pot and mold. The room was clean, and beds were ok. No coffee pot in the room, advertised breakfast, but it was in another building close by. Staff overworked had little help/

Don't stay
Pros:

All staff was great respectful nice an polite only staff member that was rude an disrespectful was the owner

Cons:

How rude an disrespectful the owner is an dont ask for a late check out cause owner gets an attitude even more towards you an the fact that bedding is not changed daily or after a guest leaves they just remake beds with same bedding. Our fridge stopped working they didn't fix it they didn't replace it TV never did work they didn't do nothing about it
